Scituate High School

Academics

Academic Advisory

Mission:

The New England Association of Schools and Colleges has established the following standard for high schools: “There shall be a formal, ongoing program through which each student has an adult member of the school community in addition to the school guidance counselor who personalizes each student’s educational experience, knows the student well, and assists the student in achieving the school-wide expectations for student learning.”

The goal of Scituate High School’s advisory program is to create opportunities for students to build relationships with adults in the building who will help them to develop as individuals over the course of their high school careers. During advisory, students will explore strategies with their advisers which will help them to grow academically, socially, emotionally, and personally. As the adviser/advisee relationship strengthens over the course of these monthly meetings, advisers and advisees will develop a mutual trust which will result in a productive and caring relationship that guides students to reach their fullest potential.
